AZIZ, Clarice (Lally) Ruth (née NAKASH) Aziz - Our beloved Lally slipped away peacefully on August 30, 2023 at the age of 92.
Predeceased last year by her devoted husband Bill, Lally leaves behind two sons, Andrew (Betsy Harvie) and Stephen as well as four grandchildren on whom she doted: John, Annie, George and Andrew.
Lally, the second daughter of George Nakash and Florence Jarjour, was raised in Montreal amidst a vibrant extended family. In 1958, she married Bill and moved to Toronto to begin married life.
She loved Montreal and when we were growing up, we often accompanied her on trips to visit her parents and sisters and her many cousins, aunts and uncles which always involved multiple large family get togethers.
Lally loved and was loved by her sisters the late Vivian Saykaly (Ernest) and Gay Elkas (Emsey) and their families.
Lally was a caring and devoted wife and a steady, consistently kind, and loving influence to her children.
She enjoyed all communities she belonged to: our home growing up, her condo on Bloor Street, and her church communities, first at Grace Church on-the-Hill and later on at St. Paul's Bloor Street.
She was a quietly devout and committed member of the Anglican Church.
For over 25 years Lally volunteered every week at the 5Fifty5 Shop at SickKids Hospital and was a member of the Women's Art Association of Canada. Lally and Bill moved to The Briton House during the pandemic.
Many thanks to everyone at The Briton House and Easy Access Health Care for their attentive care of Mom these past several years including Lisa, Jacqui, Sylvia, Carina, Julie, Jinky and Shyla.
A service will be held at the Humphrey Funeral Home A.W. Miles – Newbigging Chapel, 1403 Bayview Avenue (south of Davisville) on Wednesday September 6, 2023 at 2:00 pm.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to a charity of your choosing.
